The Indianapolis Colts are a long, long way from being healed
Two days after Peyton Manning publicly complained about the dour atmosphere at team headquarters following a 2-14 season and a rash of firings, Colts owner Jim Irsay introduced his new head coach and then stunned everyone by calling his franchise player a ''politician'' who had decided to air dirty laundry.

''I don't think it's in the best interest to paint the horseshoe in a negative light, I really don't,'' Irsay told reporters, referring to the team's longtime logo. ''The horseshoe always comes first, and I think one thing he's always known, because he's been around it so long, is that, you know, you keep it in the family. If you've got a problem you talk to each other, it's not about campaigning or anything like that.''
